Commercial models
Pricing should reflect the problem, not force the problem into a package.
Pixoflix prices from scope. This page explains the commercial models. It does not publish invented package rates.
01
Fixed-scope project
- When it fits
- A bounded output: a website, a redesign, an identity system, or a defined landing set.
- How scope is defined
- Scope is written as outcomes, pages or artefacts, plus what is explicitly out. Discovery happens before the price is treated as final.
- What affects cost
- Cost moves with existing complexity, content readiness, integrations, languages and the number of decision-makers.
- How engagement begins
- Most projects begin with a conversation or a growth plan so the constraint is visible before a proposal.
02
Audit or consulting engagement
- When it fits
- You need a focused review before committing to a rebuild, a campaign or a retainer.
- How scope is defined
- The audit type, the properties in scope and the questions you want answered are agreed first. Implementation is not implied.
- What affects cost
- Cost moves with the number of properties, account access, markets and how deep the review needs to go.
- How engagement begins
- Request an audit and name what you are concerned about. We will confirm whether an audit is the right first move.
03
Monthly growth retainer
- When it fits
- Search, creative, media or the site need a repeating loop rather than a one-off delivery.
- How scope is defined
- The retainer is defined by the constraint it is meant to move, the channels in play and the decision rhythm. It is not a bag of unused hours.
- What affects cost
- Cost moves with channel mix, creative volume, technical debt and how much internal support already exists.
- How engagement begins
- A growth plan is the usual start. The first month should still earn the next one.
04
Ongoing design or development support
- When it fits
- The system is live and you need a team that can keep changing it without reopening a full project each time.
- How scope is defined
- Support is scoped as a class of work: templates, components, landing pages, measurement, or editorial systems. Unrelated rebuilds stay out.
- What affects cost
- Cost moves with response expectations, the size of the system and how much of the stack your team already owns.
- How engagement begins
- Contact or a growth plan, with examples of the changes you keep needing.
Questions
Commercial questions, answered directly.
Yes, when the output can be bounded. The price follows a written scope. If the problem is still unclear, an audit or a short discovery comes first so the project price is not a guess.

Share the constraint and the current site. We will tell you which model fits before anyone pretends a number is universal.
